2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons peri peri powder

1 teaspoon red chili powder
½ cup olive oil
5 cloves minced garlic
1 tablespoon oregano
pinch of sugar
Blend all ingredients together, place in a jar. Wash and cut chickens in half or quarters, remove skin, ( I left the skin on ) make 3 slits in each piece, pour over the chicken and coat well let marinade for 4 hours, turning every hour. Heat oven to 180ºC. Roast chicken for 30 mins. Turn halfway during cooking, keep basting with marinade. After 30 mins turn oven down to 160ºC and cook a further 15 to 20 mins, continue basting with marinade. In the last 7 mins of cooking time set oven to grill to blacken and crisp the skin further. Serve the reserved sauce with the chicken. Heat in a pot and add a little hot water, keep stirring until sauce thickens. Serve with lemon wedges. Enjoy !

SAVOURY SAUSAGE AND CHEDDAR BREAD PUDDING

2015-09-07-savourybroodpoedingtested
SAVOURY SAUSAGE AND CHEDDAR BREAD PUDDING
Servings: 6
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 pound sweet or spicy pork sausage (casings removed)
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
1 loaf (18 slices) white sandwich bread, such as Pepperidge Farm, crusts removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
2½ cups (a little over ½ pound) grated sharp cheddar cheese
½ cup chopped fresh parsley
6 large eggs
2 cups milk
Scant teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish with butter.
In a large sauté pan (preferably nonstick) over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add the sausage and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to break the meat into small clumps, until browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a large mixing bowl, leaving the fat in the pan.
Turn the heat down to medium, then add the onions to the pan along with 1 tablespoon of butter. Cook the onions, stirring constantly, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the onions to the mixing bowl with the sausage, along with the bread cubes, grated cheese and parsley. Toss well, then spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, salt and pepper.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread mixture. Cover tightly with saran wrap and refrigerate for at least a few hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C. Bake for about one hour, until puffed and golden brown. Serve immediately.
Note: The cook time is based on cooking the bread pudding directly out of the refrigerator. If it’s left to sit out at room temperature before baking, check for doneness after 45 minutes.
